RE: anycast (ip multicast question)

But surely configuring anycast RP fulfills condition one - "You have a
logical RP and MSDP Mesh-groups" thereby requiring an originator-id to be
configured?

Hi Brent,

As an instructor, I find that when people are learning a new technology it
is
best to first present the simplest working scenario, and then build on that.

Accoring to the doc below, the originator-id is necessary under two
circumstances:

1. You have a logical RP and MSDP Mesh-groups
2. The router is a dense-mode/sparse-mode border router...

See the link below:

_
c/ipcpt3/1cfmsdp.htm#1001225

Certainly, if you run into one of those scenarios on the lab, you will want
to
use originator-id.

  Bob,

  Since the goal of most folks in this forum is to
  attain CCIE, I believe that if you did not set the
  originator-id you would lose those points. Just my
  opinion.
